Chapter 14 Based on the Plateau
Reading Pavilion 『 』, the full text is free to read. The conductor in charge of our carriage was a young man.
As soon as I came out, I happened to see the conductor coming from the duty room with a large clip in his hand, I waved to the conductor, and he stood in front of me and said, "What's wrong?" ”
I said, "You know there's an old lady from Chongqing in this box." ”
"I know, hold an urn, and the people in the box have applied to change the box, saying that this old lady is chattering."
I whispered, "Go in and see, there's a man dead inside." ”
As soon as the conductor heard that something was wrong, he threw the clip on the bunk where I lived, and stretched out his hand to push the old lady, who still had a little life.
The young man reached out and touched the old lady's snort, then looked at me and said, "When did you find out?" ”
I said, "Just found out." How do you deal with this? ”
The young man looked at me and said, "Two plans, go to Xi'an and let the police station carry it down, or pull it all the way to Chongqing." It depends on how the conductor arranges, so you don't want to live here, I'll change you somewhere. ”
I pointed and said, "My friends are in the next box, not too far away." ”
"But it's all full! If you really can't do it, you can squeeze in with your friends. As long as there is a seat, I will arrange it for you. The conductor said, "Let's do it first, I have to report to the conductor, and don't make a noise about it, only for you and me." ”
I said, "Don't worry, I know what to expect." ”
The conductor quickly brought the police and the conductor, and after a few people took notes next door, they came into our box, and the police began to take notes. Yuwanwan and I told the story as it was. The police told us not to spread the news. After saying that, he left.
When Huzi and I sent it out, we vaguely heard a cat meow coming from the box where the old lady died! Huzi looked at me at this time and said, "Lao Chen, there is a cat in it, it should always be on the top bunk." This, this won't be a scam corpse! ”
I didn't speak, in fact, I also have this kind of worry, and now I just think of the blood gourd that Huzi and I met at the bottom of the river. If it wasn't for the tiger to save me, there would be no future.
Huzi reached out to push the door of the box at this time, that is, at this time, the police and the conductor came together, and when Huzi was about to open the door, the police said loudly: "What are you doing?" ”
Huzi immediately retracted his hand.
When the police and the conductor arrived, the police officer said, "What are you going to do?" ”
Huzi said, "There's a cat in there." ”
The policeman asked suspiciously: "Cat?" ”
Huzi nodded and said, "That's right, Lao Chen and I both heard it." ”
I said, "yes, there are cats." ”
The police officer opened the door suspiciously, looked at the upper bunk, checked the luggage rack above, and then checked the bottom of the bunk, and found no cats. At this time, I suspected that the cat was hiding in the old lady's bed.
I said, "See if there's anything in the quilt." ”
The police lifted the quilt, but still didn't see a cat. He looked at us and said, "Did you hear me wrong?" ”
Huzi and I looked at each other, and then we could only nod and hum.
Huzi said: "Eighty percent of them heard it wrong. ”
The four of us came out, and the policeman closed the door and said, "No one is allowed in here." We discussed it, consulted with the leadership, and decided to bring the body back to Chongqing. After you get off the train, you and I will go to the station police station for a detailed questioning. ”
I said, "That's fine." ”
At this time, another conductor came, a middle-aged man of forty years old, who was in charge of guarding the body here and not letting anyone approach.
After the two left, Huzi and I had a ride or not to chat with this middle-aged conductor, whose family is from Tongzhou. After knowing that we were from Tangshan, he said that we were fellow villagers, and he said that Tongzhou used to be called Tongxian, but after liberation, it was changed to Tongxian Town, and later Tongzhou City was established. It was not until 58 years that it was assigned to Bei/Beijing.
He said: "Now half of the people in Bei and Beijing are from Hebei, but now there is a problem, some people in Beijing have their tails in the sky, and their mentality has changed after they become the capital. This is not right. ”
Huzi said: "Now you still remember that your roots are in Hebei, it is estimated that after two generations, the people of Bei/Beijing in Tongzhou will not remember these." ”
I said, "What's the use of writing this?" Does my child have to remember that his hometown is Xidiaotuo Village, Xijiatuo Township? It's useless to remember. There was nothing left at home, and there were a few large vats in the shed. ”
Huzi said, "Is there any wine in it?" ”
I said, "Where is there wine, just a few empty vats." ”
We were chatting when we heard another cat bark in the box.
Huzi immediately put his ear on the box and said, "Lao Chen, did you hear that?" ”
I'm not deaf, so how can I not hear? The conductor's eldest brother naturally heard it, and he also put his ear on the box.
But after the cat barked, it stopped barking.
The eldest brother cautiously opened the door of the box, turned back and said, "You are outside, don't come in." Don't let people come close. ”
Huzi and I watched outside, and after the eldest brother went in, he closed the door and searched inside, but he still didn't find the cat. I opened the door and said, "Maybe it's hidden in the old lady's clothes." ”
The eldest brother opened the door and came out of it and said, "Do you want to take off the old lady's big cotton pants?" If you do that, you probably won't be able to stop living for the rest of your life. ”
I said, "It's nothing." ”
Huzi said: "I'm afraid that the cat will string the corpse with yang qi and cheat the corpse!" ”
The eldest brother said, "Yes, what can I do?" To tell you the truth, I've seen corpse fraudsters, when I was a child, an uncle named Mi Mancang in the village died, and a cat jumped on the corpse and squatted on its chest/mouth to stare at everyone, it was too infiltrating. Not long after the cat was chased away, it was defrauded. ”
Huzi said: "How did you cheat? ”
"A few young people play poker in the second half of the night, will you beat the mother? The emperor is the first to go, and the one who can't go out is the mother. ”
I said, "This will be." ”
"One of them didn't know what was going on, and the corpse spoke in the back, and the corpse craned his neck to look at the playing cards and said, "Hit Lao Gada!"
Huzi smiled and said, "I must be frightened." ”
The eldest brother said: "It's not like that, when I look back, I see that he is alive, and the young man throws the playing cards and runs away." The corpse chased after him, all the way out of the yard to the street, chasing a young man to the death. The young man ran around the village for half a lap and then lost his strength, and just happened to see a house with the gate open and the lights on, this is a gambling house, and a group of people are pushing cards/nines in it. The young man ran into the yard and saw a kennel and went straight into the kennel. ”
I said, "The dog saved him." ”
"That's right, after he got into the kennel, the corpse was standing outside, and the dog stopped the corpse and howled for nothing. The living corpse must have been wise, and did not force it, but looked into the room. Then he went into the house. This is all from a village, knowing that Mimancang is dead, he suddenly appeared in the house, but he frightened people and shouted that it was haunted. Some jumped out of the window, some came out through the door, in short, they all ran out in an instant, and in the end only the mistress of the house did not come out, and was bitten by the corpse. Strange to say, after the corpse saw blood, it suddenly died on this kang. But then the woman had a serious illness, a high fever for a month, and finally the fever went away, but the body completely collapsed, and she was often fascinated by ghosts in the future, entangled by a weasel, and was also covered by a big yellow snake. He lived for seven or eight years, and finally hanged himself in his shed. ”
Speaking of which, suddenly there was a click in the box, which was very loud and startled us.
Huzi said: "What is this cat doing is gentle, how can it be so loud?" Did the urn fall to the ground? ”
I shook my head and said, "It's that big, a cat wouldn't touch it." ”
The three of us looked at each other, then looked at the sliding door, and the eldest brother said, "It's not really a corpse!" "High-quality and free reading is in the Reading Pavilion."
